Walt Disney Studios has just provided us with this bus shelter ad for its upcoming epic Secretariat, billed as ‘The Impossible True Story.’

Based on the remarkable true story, Secretariat chronicles the spectacular journey of the 1973 Triple Crown winner. Housewife and mother Penny Chenery (Diane Lane) agrees to take over her ailing father’s Virginia-based Meadow Stables, despite her lack of horse-racing knowledge. Against all odds, Chenery—with the help of veteran trainer Lucien Laurin (John Malkovich)—manages to navigate the male-dominated business, ultimately fostering the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years and what may be the greatest racehorse of all time.

Via its official YouTube channel, Disney Consumer Products offers up its latest ‘pook-a-sode’ featuring its popular Pook-a-Looz line of plush toys.

Will Dopey’s quest end in success? Watch the video to find out.

As with all of the pook-a-sodes, this one also features an appearance by a ‘hidden Pook-a-looz’ but this one in particular may take a careful eye to spot it.
